THE SHADOW HAND.

The shadow hand from mystic realm
Is laid upon my brow
It guides the ship like hand on helm
To stiller waters now.
It lifts the mantle of grim care
And Gains the throbbing heart,
Until the shades of deep despair
From out my soul depart.
Oh, shadow hand of spirit sweet,
Be with me ever near
Make mortal life more full, complete,
Eternity more Gear.

DAVENPORT, Iowa, Dec. 2S The mer-
curry marked 12' below zero this morning.
There was strong wind from the west,
and the snow drifts in the streets were
three feet high in places. Despite these
obstacles the parade of the Iowa Travel

TEE S.. Louis Globe Democrat knows
whereof 1t speaks in this, at least, concern

that Texas shall De divided up into three
or four states. Mr.. Springer Is bold
man. Texans know that to cut up their
state into four pieces would give the
Democrats big prepondersrce
in the Electoral College, for
each segment would undoubt--
edly give from $4,000 to loo, 900 ms oriiy
for that party. No patriotic Texan, how
ever, will ever consent to The division OF
his state. That is the one question upon
which Republicans and Democrats, Pro-
hibitfonists and "Antis," protectionists
and free traders are firmly agreed. Every
resident OF the common
wealth believes that some time in the
near future 10000, 600 Of alert. intelligent

where the body lay. While he was there
the woman rose up in her cofin, and in q
dszed manner, as was very proper II may
be remarked, asked where she was.
The physician was equal to the coca
sion. He spoke not word, but lifted
the woman from her &C fila and carried
her to her own room. The shroud was
there taken from her body and she was
clothed as living person before she re-
covered full consciousness. Her hus-
band and children were told Of the won
derful occurrence, and when they had re-
covered from the shock they were admit
ted to the woman's presence. The wo
mau is to-day in excellent health, and
will, doubtless, live to a good old sge,
but she has never heard OF the close ep-
proach she made to the mouth of the
grave. She knows nothing whatever of
her apparent death and recovery.

TO WOOL GROWERS.
The President OF the National Asso-
citation Issues an Inspiring kd-
dress 70 the Members.
Active, Consolidated Resistance Necessary
to Check the Proposed Unfriendly Leg.
is.ation-TImeIy Advice Given.

COLUMBUS, OHIO, Dec. 26.-Hon
Columbus Delsno, president CT the Ma
tionsl Wool. Growers Association, has
issued the following address:
MOUNT VERNON, OHIO, Dec. 25, 1857.
To the Wool Growers of the United States.
The statement favoring free trade in
this country has been augmented to the
extent of the Presidents influence, and in
announcing his sympathy with those who
do not encourage American indus
tries and domestic labor. the executive
has emphasized his contempt for your in
dustry by proposing to repeal all duties
on imported woods. You number about
100000 voters and give employment to
about 100000 more. Every state and
nearly every county in each state of this
Union has focks and flockmaste1s. Your
f2cks generally are small, your wealth
limited and your locations SO scattered
as to render organization and united &C.
ton difficult. Once the producers of
100000 900 pounds of wool annually val
ued atsoout 800, 100000, you have seen
the unfriendly legislation of 1883 check
your growth and actually reduce your
fOcks in number and your animal clip in
quantity to tthe extent Of Is per cent.
These are the results of small reduc-
ticn IF the protective duties. Now the
President proposes the abolition SO that
South America AID Australis, with othtr
foreign nations, can supply the con-
sumption CT the United States spin
dies and looms. Officers OF your
national society desire 10 organize
resistance TO this cruel attempt. In order
&c secure It's defeat by active consoli-
dated resistance, advise that you petit
ton Congress freely from. all parts of
the country, send letters 10 Congressman
from every district, have esch association
OF wool growers state the county, town.
ship OF town, pass and forward appropri-
ate resolutions, incite grangers or asso-
Citations Of hushendmen to
unite their voices with yours in
urging Congress to promote the welfare
OF agriculture, eDfranchise men that free
men may obtain justice and avoid OPP
preston By making these in authority
understand their wants. II you have not
large or consolidated wealth you have
to exercise wisely the power which this
privilege gives. TIE founders Of our
country placed in the hands of IFS people
power to correct the errors OF those who
make or administer our laws without
Or violence. The executive
has been misinformed. Remove the de-
ception and let him ard the nation know
that you will not submit to the proposed
Injustice without q resolute struggle.

WANTED-PASSABLE ROADS.

So much has been said in behalf oil
good country roads that The GAZETTE
can not hope to add anything to the
public apprehension Of the benefits to be
derived from improved roadways. THE
GAZETTE therefore would simply call
public attention, not to the advantages of
good roads, but to the imperative need
of passeble thoroughfsres leading into
tie city.
Every man in Fort Worth appreciates
the value Of good roads, and perhaps
every man in Fort Worth realizes the
necessity fer such highways; but no msn
moves for organized action to supply this
pressing reed Of our retail trade, while
ssthmeR lament it. Recognition and con-
fession Of q public necessity is idle with
cut action; lsmentstion without organized
effort is worse than idleness. The time
has Gene for action, and for organized
action such as has brought to Fort Worth
ali thst il has ever accomplished.
When this city wsnts railroad, or
stockysrds,o or manufacturing enterprise.
it's people meet and organize and unity
their effort to the contamination OF The
common purpose and benefit. Fort
Worth needs and Fort Worth wants good
country rosdways, but, so far, the effort
to secure them has been isolated and
spasmodic; and yet all sdmit that the
city has no more urgent need and that
nothing would so inspirit and give
strength to our retail trade. We clsmor
for more people to fill the vacant prairies
around and about our city, while
We recognize, confess and lament that
the people We have are shut out from US
By Chinese wall OF black mud.
The press of Fort Worth has directed
public sttention to this need of the city;
the merchants OF Fort Worth have ad-
mitted snd lamented this need Of the city;
the people Of Fort Worth have recog-
Dized this need of tie city; but who has
moved to organize the action that is re-
quiyed TO secure Whist we need? The
time for seton has come. The necessity
of the city Is equally the necessity OF tie
country. THE GAZETTE has addressed
itself TO the city not because the city's
need of pssssble thoroughisres and its
benefits tecm such yoadways are greater
than the country's, but beesuee it is
easier 10 reach the city than the country.
As matter OF fact, the peo-
pie now inhabiting the city can
better endure impossible country roads
than csn the people now inhabiting the
country. THE GAZETTE appeals to the
people of the city thst they may, individ-
ually and collectively, seek the coopera-
ton OF the people of the country to sup
ply the common need. Why can not the
people Of FoIt Worth insugurate at once
an organized action to secure Whist al
admit is an urgent need3
